109．不要吹毛求疵

不要吹毛求疵。有人天性陰郁，認為所有的事情都有問題。這并非他們動機不純，是其天性使然。他們對誰都加以責備——有時是責其所為，有時是責其即將所為。這是一種比殘忍更令人厭惡的天性，真是讓人厭煩。他們的指責十分過分，總是雞蛋里挑骨頭，讓人無法忍受。他們常把天堂變成地獄——狂怒之時，他們事事走極端。而天性高貴的人則相反，他們總是寬容別人的過失，堅信別人都是出自善意，或者只是一時不慎才做錯了事。

109．Be not censorious

Be not censorious. There are men of gloomy character who regard everything as faulty, not from any evil motive but because it is their nature to. They condemn all: these for what they have done, those for what they will do. This indicates a nature worse than cruel, vile indeed. They accuse with such exaggeration that they make out of motes beams wherewith to force out the eyes. They are always taskmasters who could turn a paradise into a prison; if passion intervenes they drive matters to the extreme. A noble nature, on the contrary, always knows how to find an excuse for failings, if not in the intention, at least from oversight.
